A pedophile used Roblox to groom, abduct and sexually assault a 15-year-old girl, a full 18 months after the community had outed him as a predator
A new report from Bloomberg Businessweek covers the investigation and arrest of a pedophile who used the Roblox gaming platform to groom his victim, before abducting and sexually assaulting her multiple times. The man assumed various identities on Roblox but was best-known as the creator of a profitable Sonic the Hedgehog fan game on the platform, a position that gave him considerable clout within the Roblox community, and one which he used to prey upon its young users.
